I'm locking in.

About me, cosplay builds, and con threads.

You can check my media tab for finished photos of my cosplays including ones I don't document a build for.

Even if Good and Pretti were alive today, the feds would be doing more damage to our schools, our economy, our businesses, our communities, our hospitals than any outside actor has ever done in the history of Minnesota. Shaking Tom Homan's hand and agreeing to work with him makes you a collaborator.

I don’t really know what I expect in posting this, but maybe some people see it and can learn from it.

I’ll call it “lessons from an unwilling immigration attorney.”

i think a lot of people who are not in minnesota and/or are stuck in mainstream media bubbles don’t understand how little actual immigration status matters right now. none of this is “immigration enforcement” in any practical sense, and the media either doesn’t know or is choosing not to tell them.
journalists need to stop saying “immigration enforcement” and start saying “ethnic cleansing.” DHS and ICE are forgoing immigration laws and procedures; they are abducting anyone who looks latino/hispanic. the facts are extremely clear that this is a white supremacist ethnic cleansing project.

had a coworker who was an Accidental Ally because he went by his middle name so when our boss was advocating against unneeded legal name usage in various situations (often on behalf of a trans coworker) she could refer to the middle name guy as a reason to not trot out legal first names
Baffled by transphobes insisting that the name on your birth certificate is Your True Name Forever when it was common in my grandparents' generation to just...pick a name you like and use that, nbd. I literally found out both of my grandma's birth certificate first names FROM THEIR OBITUARIES.

looked at the forecast for the next week and what the fuck. What the fuck. The thaw isn't supposed to be that hot in February. It's not supposed to be 50 until a random day in March that's sloppy and wet. I hate climate change

And we don’t have to guess what they mean, because we can read Project 2025 ourselves and see that “pornography” is shorthand for LGBTQ people existing publicly. That’s what they’re working to ban, censor, and restrict online under the guise of “protecting” kids from porn

When a sitting representative refers to the Super Bowl halftime show as “pornography,” people should use that to reflect on how they and other representatives are simultaneously working to ban, censor, and restrict “pornography” and what that actually means

Kinda Fucked Up that in our lifetimes we've gone from "never share personal info on the internet" to "hand over your identity to the most incompetent corporations imaginable".

Have y'all ever seen starlings, or jays, or house sparrows, mob a larger bird? A crow, or a hawk?

The hawk is larger and could kill any one of the smaller birds easily. But the mob of smaller birds is hard to stop. They harass the larger bird, confuse it, make it difficult for it to sit in peace.

made the saddest little burnt heart shaped chocolates for a boy who did not feel remotely the same about me 😅
What's the most... WHATEVER... thing you did for/to/because of a crush around Valentine's Day when you were an under-18er? Embarrassing, awesome, successful, expensive, unsuccessful, creepy, just the MOST.

Since he got arrested in Ramsey county is he finally going to understand when he keeps saying in his threats of terrorizing Minneapolis he actually means St. Paul?

Holy Land will have a Benito special, inspired by his statement at the Grammys last weekend, for superbowl Sunday. I know where I’m getting takeout!

If you've never experienced a Midwest summer, Minneapolis and St Paul is where you wanna go.

our cities are beautiful and you will fall in love
Axios had a story today about how hard Minnesota’s economy is being hit and how slow the recovery could be. So, I’m going to take this opportunity to say that if you want to support the Twin Cities, you should plan a visit for this summer, spend some money here, & see how amazing it is for yourself.
